Allez Allez
On the verge of an international breakthrough in 1981, funky Belgian new wave band [a=Marine (2)] lost their singer in London. Quickly replaced by [a=Sarah Osborne (4)] from [a=Repetition] they recorded their planned Peel session and changed their name to Allez Allez.
Following indie mini album African Queen the group signed with Virgin. Promises was produced by [a=Martyn Ware], founding member of both [a=Heaven 17] and [a=Human League], and was released in November 1982. The album and singles were not mainstream hits, and Sarah left the band for a marriage with Heaven 17 singer [a=Glenn Gregory].
She was replaced by singer Jackie Irwin from New York, but this didn't work out.
Bass player [a=Marka] later found fame as a singer in the French speaking part of the world.
